lit is an extremely small (395 bytes gzipped) responsive CSS micro-framework offering a 12-column grid, typography, buttons, cards, inputs, and table styles in a single stylesheet. It is distributed via npm or CDN, supports older browsers like IE11, and includes an optional atomic-CSS utility addon called util.

Use cases

• smallest responsive css framework
• tiny css framework under 1kb
• lightweight bootstrap alternative for prototypes
• minimal stylesheet with grid and typography
• style a landing page without heavy css
• micro css framework for demos and hacks
• atomic css utility classes to extend a framework

When to choose

• You need basic styling (grid, typography, buttons, cards, inputs, tables) with a near-zero payload
• You are building prototypes, demos, or landing pages where page weight matters more than a full design system
• You need a micro-framework that works even in legacy browsers like Internet Explorer 11
• You want a tiny base plus optional atomic utility classes to extend any CSS setup

When to avoid

• You need a comprehensive design system with theming, dark mode, and prebuilt interactive components like modals or dropdowns
• You expect JavaScript-driven UI behavior from the framework itself
• You require extensive accessibility tooling or large component ecosystems out of the box
